Chapter 54: Show Your Might
Chapter 54: Show Your Might
Having been thoroughly humiliated by Kisaragi Amuro's display of affection, Taiyo Oga showed no intention of continuing the conversation.
He forced a smile and made up an excuse to end the conversation.
As Ruyue Yulu watched her "best friend's" retreating figure, she couldn't help but sneer.
The recording has arrived.
If Taiga Taiyo doesn't find an opportunity to explain things clearly to Hinata Aoi and Akino Sakura, then he has a problem with his character.
For the past week, Sunflower and Akino Sakura have been so attentive to Taiyo Oga, even disregarding their reputations as girls, and have been having lunch with Taiyo Oga every day.
Anyone with a normal mind could sense the feelings between the two girls.
However, Taiyo Oga deliberately pretended not to know.
If those two girls still like Taiyo Oga, then they're beyond saving.
Ruyue Yulu would no longer pay attention to these two women who seemed to have something wrong with their heads.
After physical education class, Ruyue Yulu changed back into her black school uniform and headed towards the library.
"Shower head, wait for me, I want to go to the library too!"
Hinata Aoi had been keeping an eye on Kisaragi Amuro for a long time, and when she saw that he didn't invite her after class, her cheeks immediately puffed up.
But she couldn't care less about saving face anymore. If she continued to let Hana and Sanshokuin Sumireko be alone together, she probably would never have another chance to win back her childhood sweetheart's heart.
When Kisaragi Amuro saw Hinata Aoi chasing after her, she didn't refuse. Perfect, I'll take out the recorder later and let this silly girl hear what Taiyo Oga really thinks.
As a transmigrator, and a corrector recognized by the world's consciousness, he wouldn't be like the one in the original story, framed by Dahe Taiyang and thus lose credibility, becoming a rat that everyone hates.
In his opinion, the guy with the shower in the original story was a cowardly, gay man.
After being framed by his best friend Taiyo Oga and losing everything, he still shamelessly begs him to reconcile and even helps to matchmake Sumireko, who likes him, with Taiyo Oga.
It's an idiot to value a trashy best friend more than a girl.
Recalling the original plot, Ruyue Yulu's face turned red with anger.
No wonder the world's consciousness wanted to correct him; this kind of male protagonist is simply not fit to be the lead in a romantic comedy.
Since he's the protagonist of a light novel, he should at least show some presence!
While mentally criticizing the absurd plot of the original work, Ruyue Yulu quickened her pace toward the library.
He wouldn't give a good girl like Sumire to anyone.
Behind him, watching the backs of Sunflower and the showerhead, Taiyo Oga clenched his fists with a gloomy expression.
He was very unwilling at that moment.
Including what happened in junior high, this is the second time he has lost to a showerhead.
Damn showerhead, I'll make you pay!
Having secretly resolved to ruin his "best friend's" reputation and being abandoned by everyone, Taiyo Oga thought of how Sunflower and Akizakura had been so attentive to him this past week, and a sinister smile crept onto his lips.
……
The scene shifts to a library.
The library was deserted; hardly anyone came to borrow books.
There's no way around it; after all, they're all young men and women. With cell phones around, isn't it more enjoyable than reading a book?
The librarian Sumireko Sanshokuin is probably the only one who can endure loneliness and immerse herself in books.
Hi, Sumireko, good afternoon.
Upon entering the library, Ruyue Yulu greeted the girl with braided hair and glasses who was sitting at the librarian's desk.
Today, Sumireko Sanshokuin is still dressed in a long skirt, with braids and glasses.
The only accessories in her hair were two tricolor flower hair clips.
"Hmm, good afternoon, Rain Dew-kun, I'm so happy to see you."
The girl showed an unusually enthusiastic attitude towards his arrival. Her eyes, which were fixed on him, seemed to shine with light, sparkling with tenderness and a captivatingly bright gaze.
Ruyue Yulu smiled, naturally sat down next to her, and took out her laptop to start her daily typing.
"Me too, Pansy! I'm coming too!"
Hinata Aoi spoke loudly, pouting as she glanced at Kisaragi Amuro, then quickly took over the spot next to him, forming a flanking position with Sanshokuin Sumireko.
"Welcome, Sunflower!"
Sumireko Sanshokuin smiled and responded, also addressing her by the girl's nickname.
Kisaragi Yu glanced at Hinata Aoi and said:
"Sunflower, I was just about to ask, don't you have to go to tennis practice this afternoon?"
"Hehe, I don't have to train today, so I have plenty of time to come and keep the shower company!"
"I don't think I need you to keep me company, I have Sumireko."
Hinata Aoi felt wronged by this obvious dismissal, but she pretended not to hear it and said with a smile:
"Then I can chat with Pansy!"
Sumireko Sanshokuin raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, but did not deny what Sunflower had said.
She stood up, picked up the teapot, poured the black tea into the two mugs, and pushed one of the full mugs towards Ruyue Yulu.
"Please have some tea, Mr. Rain and Dew."
"Oh, I was just thirsty, Sumireko, thank you."
"You're welcome." Sumireko Sanshokuin smiled happily. After he took a sip, she put their mugs together to form a heart shape.
Hinata Aoi looked at the two ambiguous heart-shaped mugs on the table and felt a pang of jealousy.
Damn it, is Sanshokuin student declaring ownership of the showerhead?
But she simply couldn't object.
Who told her, her childhood sweetheart, to betray the shower head first?
"Ahem, Showerhead, I've been wanting to ask you this for a while, why do you always bring your laptop to school?"
Taking a deep breath, Hinata Aoi suppressed the bitterness in her heart and loudly tried to find a topic to talk about.
Kisaragi Amuro answered without looking up, "I've been writing a light novel lately."
"Huh? Shower head, are you serious?"
Hinata Aoi was stunned.
"Of course, one must always move forward. After all, I have nothing left to lose. Without a goal, I think I would probably be depressed to death."
As if the moonlit rain was hinting at something, Hinata Aoi instinctively lowered her head.
She felt guilty.
Although she usually acts very carefree in front of the showerhead, like a naturally silly little girl.
But she knows everything she needs to know.
The showerhead was hurt by the student council president, whom he liked, and then he was also hurt by his childhood friend. It was as if he had lost everything.
Sumireko Sanshokuin glanced at Asuka Yuuko with amusement, a slight smile playing on her lips.
Shower Boy has really changed; his words seem to be a reference to his childhood sweetheart who betrayed him.
She didn't dislike the showerhead guy's scheming behavior.
In Sumireko Sanshokuin's eyes, the way the showerhead did this was a brilliant and ingenious point.
See, Hinata is too embarrassed to speak now, which shows that it works great.
Of course, we shouldn't just suppress them indiscriminately.
Kisaragi Amuro remained silent for a moment, her gaze falling on Hinata Aoi's face.
"Sunflower, the monthly exam is coming up soon. If you fail, you won't have a weekend off."
"Since we're already here, why don't we study together with Sumire? I'm not bragging, but Sumire is number one in the humanities in the grade!"
Upon hearing this, Hinata Aoi perked up and nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, okay, I love reviewing! I just don't know if Pansy would be willing to teach me."
Sumireko Sanshokuin glanced helplessly at Ayuru Kisaragi, who had found her the job, but did not refuse.
"Of course, no problem. The work at the library is very easy, and I'm just killing time anyway. Sunflower, shall we study together?"
"Okay! Then I'll leave it to you, pansy!"
Hyuga Aoi is full of energy.
It was mainly Ruyue Yulu's words that made her feel that he still cared about her.
The study session lasted for ten minutes, and Hinata Aoi seemed to have made some progress.
Suddenly, Akino Sakura walked in, holding the pink notebook, with a perfectly timed smile.
"Hi, junior from the Three Colors Academy, junior from Sunflower Academy, and showerhead-kun, good afternoon."
